Here are a few tips for being a good friend: Don’t brag about the wonderful things in your life…too much

Be sensitive to last minute changes of plans

Do not minimize anything they are experiencing

Help with errands (Duh!)

Bring food

Stay in touch and keep including the person even if they often refuse (unless told otherwise)

Our firm has made a significant investment in acquiring the best materials and resources that address the unique needs of the caregivers for Alzheimer’s patients.

These materials are as compatible for family members and friends as they are for the professional affiliate, and represent the initial steps you need to take to provide the best possible care for your loved one.

We offer these valuable resources to you completely FREE of charge, because our firm is committed to advocating for the ongoing “Fight for a Cure,” providing the support that you need to be able to cope, and to continue to educate the community-at-large about this devastating disease.

With Alzheimer’s disease, there is no 6 degrees of separation: •Affects 5.3 million Americans of all ages

•1 out of 8 sufferers are over the age of 65

We are all touched by this terrible and non-discriminating disease. It is a terminal illness. And there are no survivors.
